Our assessment
The evidence shows that Shaklee Fiber Plan Tablets contain calcium as a key ingredient. Based on the data provided, calcium supports bone mineralization and neuromuscular function [NIH ODS]. However, we cannot evaluate the fiber component of this product because data on its specific benefits or risks is not available.
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural building block for your bones and a signal regulator for your nerves and muscles. It works through bone mineralization, helping to maintain bone density and mineral deposition, and it supports neuromuscular relaxation for proper muscle function and nerve signaling [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all products in the database, but specific report counts for Shaklee Fiber Plan Tablets are not available. Regarding calcium specifically, high intakes may increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer [NIH ODS]. Very high blood and urine levels of calcium can cause poor muscle tone, poor kidney function, low phosphate levels, constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, frequent urination, abnormal heart rhythms, and a high risk of death from heart disease [NIH ODS]. Calcium can also reduce the absorption of several medications, including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS].
Our recommendation
If you are considering Shaklee Fiber Plan Tablets for their calcium content, be aware that calcium from food sources is generally preferred. To avoid potential side effects, do not exceed the recommended intake on the label. Check with your doctor if you take any of the medications listed above, as timing your supplement dose may be necessary. Because fiber-specific data for this product is not available, we cannot fully assess its benefits for digestive health [NIH ODS].
